FixedMulti-Quote Remove

Well-known member

If you multi-quote posts then remove all posts from the multi-quote (maybe you decide against posting), the dialog box disappears but the quotes remain saved. Also, the icons do not revert back to the plus.

It is designed that clicking removed doesn't actually remove from the quote cache, merely removes from that post insert.

However, what if you multi-quote and don't want to post after all? You either
a) wait for the quote cache to expire thus deletes all
b) go through each thread and unquote everything you quoted
c) insert quotes into post then delete them

I can't honestly think of a situation where you would want to remove a quote but keep it for later - imo it should always remove the quote permanently

Having to quote and then delete the text is fairly unintuitive, and it's made worse by the cross-thread quoting so users can move to a different thread and be stuck with an insert multiquote button and no easy way to get rid of it (clicking all the minus buttons is the most obvious alternative to the remove link)

Yep, I used the interface with the prior knowledge from the video that 'remove' was temporary (imo not a good design choice), and I still did a double-take when clicking remove on all the quotes didn't actually remove them.

If it's going to be kept the way it is, a third button needs to be added to the bottom of the dialog to clear all quotes
